{{#seo: |title=Switch Homebrew Apps (Exploits) - GameBrew |title_mode=append |image=nerebaswitch.png |image_alt=Nereba }} Nereba is a warmboot bootrom exploit for the Nintendo Switch. * The exploit is not a Horizon OS vulnerability, but a vulnerability in the bootrom of the Tegra X. * The name "nereba" comes from a conjugation of the Japanese verb neru, "to sleep", meaning roughly "if I sleep, then…". * The exploit works by taking advantage of a vulnerability in the bootrom during the Switch's sleep mode. The bootrom assumes that certain parameters do not change during a "coldboot" (power on reset), but Nvidia forgot to verify them during warmboot. * The exploit allows for arbitrary writes, which can be used to take control of the bootrom using the built-in ipatch system. * Exploitation on 1.0 is simple, as the region where the RAM parameters are stored is accessible easily with the nspwn exploit. * Using this on firmware versions higher than 1.0 requires more complex exploits. * The initial release of this exploit only works on Switch firmware version 1.0.0. ==How To Run== To use this release, extract the zip onto the SD card, add a payload of your liking to the nereba folder and name it "nereba.bin", connect your console to pegaswitch and run nspwn @Sdcard:/nereba.nsp, then press the home button and launch the album applet. ==Changelog== '''v.0.1''' * This release works only on Switch firmware version 1.0.0. Eventually, support for 2.0-3.0 will be added. == External links == * Gbatemp - https://gbatemp.net/threads/nereba-exploit-reboot-to-fusee-gelee-payload-from-stock-firmware.536409/ * Github - https://github.com/pixel-stuck/nereba
